Sending PM issues

Hi all - Not sure this is the correct spot for this (if not, modes please feel free to move and correct me - sorry). I attempted to send my first PM on this forum about an hour or so ago. It's sitting in my outbox. Doesn't seem to be sending, and I can't see how to send it from my outbox. I figure it will go to "sent mail' once it has sent. Is this a delay, or should I try again? I don't want to harass the person I am trying to contact with multiple messages. Any ideas what I'm doing incorrectly here? Thanks!

Go to "compose message". Compose your message, add recipient and subject. Submit. The message will stay in the outbox until the recipient reads it. Only then it will appear in "sent messages" (and disappear from outbox).

Thanks mmcavall! I've not run into an outbox before that acts as a "read receipt". Thant and right now I am dealing with server certificate issues for one e-mail account where I simply can't send out e-mails though I can receive them. When they don't go out they sit in my outbox. I guess I was worried it was happening here. Thanks again!

No problem. If you want to make a test, send me a PM
